The Battle of Bannockburn

How did the Battle of Bannockburn change the course of English-Scottish history?

Scotland鈥檚 struggle for independence was marked by rebellion, betrayal, and remarkable victories. In this episode, we trace the story from William Wallace鈥檚 uprising against English rule, through the rise of Robert the Bruce, to the decisive Scottish triumph at Bannockburn in 1314.

We're joined by writer and historian Helen Carr to explain the century that changed the course of English-Scottish history.
